 .DISCUSSION...
 Showers and a few thunderstorms will continue this afternoon before 
 tapering off this evening. On Wednesday heavy showers and 
 thunderstorms are expecting beginning across the north in the 
 morning and shifting south through the day. A Flash Flood Watch has 
 been issued starting early Wednesday morning localized amounts of 2 
 to 3 inches of rain could fall very quickly. Because the ground is 
 already wet from recent rainfall, flash flooding, mudslides, and 
 uprooted trees from gusty thunderstorm winds are all possible. A 
 cold front will push the moisture out of the area by Thursday 
 morning, bringing dry and pleasant weather for Thursday and the end 
 of the week.
